Song #67
Wellerman by Nathan Evans
It was released on January 21, 2021
Fun Fact: Known as “Soon May the Wellerman Come” or “The Wellerman,” the sea shanty from New Zealand dates back to 1860. A long song with lots of lyrics, the song likely provided a great deal of meaning and accompaniment to long days in the country as shore whalers hunted their giant sea mammals for flesh and oil. The title of the song is a reference to supply ships owned by the Weller brothers, who were some of the earliest European settlers of the Otago region of New Zealand. In 2021, Nathan Evans earned a viral hit on TikTok for his cover of this song.

I'd Rather Sleep by Kero Kero Bonito
It was released on September 30, 2013
Fun Fact: The song probably deals with mental illness (possibly depression), the discomfort felt by child while growing up and the struggle to regain the sense of innocence lost once you become an adult. The simplistic language used through the song is quite possibly a way to express the idea of the childish idealization of sleep and trying to escape reality.

Canary in a Coal Mine by The Crane Wives
It was released on September 22, 2012
Fun Fact: Canaries were historically brought into coal mines in cages by miners, because if there were toxic gases such as carbon monoxide in the mines, they would kill off the canaries first and allow the miners to leave. A “canary in a coal mine” is thus a warning sign of danger. In this song, the singer shoulders the danger and pain faced by her partner, and suffers as a result.
